Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
Air pollution
linked to seven million deaths globally
A recent study
released by the World Health Organization, WHO, says over three million had died
because of indoor air pollution and a quarter million by outdoor air pollution
in 2012. The study also found that the vast majority of the deaths, six out of
seven million, had been found in South East Asia, the fastest developing and
modernizing region in the world.
Well, most of you
know how serious the smog problem in Beijing where many of the residents and
visitors are wearing all sorts of masks when they go out or stay outdoor. But
why so many deaths had been caused indoor? Who are the ones suffer more than
the others?
Enjoy reading and
learning what diseases are caused air pollution and who suffer the most.
